Drake Launches Houston Appreciation Weekend

Drake loves him some Houston. After penning the ode 'Houstatlantavegas' on his 'So Far Gone' mixtape and making it rain with thousands at the V Live strip club, it's only right that the rapper creates Houston Appreciation Weekend for H-Town.

"Houston Texas! Dates Coming Soon…" Drizzy posted on Instagram. According to MTV, some early predictions of participants include hometown acts and friends of Drake like Bun B (who performed at OVO Fest in 2010) and Paul Wall.

This isn't the first time Drake has attached his name to a special day. Earlier this year, he launched "Drake Night" in his hometown of Toronto during a Raptors game -- he's a global ambassador for the team. The event featured limited edition T-shirts in conjunction with the rapper's OVO (October’s Very Own) Sounds label.
